Chapter 40

After listening to what Auntie Zhang said, ice covered Lu Yuchen’s distinct features. “The Lu family would not keep people that bullied their owners. Fire both of them and call everyone to wait in the dining room.”

Auntie Zhang answered fearfully. Just as she was going to handle those items, she suddenly remembered that Tang Xinluo was still in the bedroom.

“Young Master, about Young Madam…”

“Bring the key over.”

With Lu Yuchen’s permission, Auntie Zhang finally dared to take the key over.

After delivering the key, she hurriedly went down to teach the two troublemakers a lesson.

Lu Yuchen directly put the key into the keyhole and opened the shut door.

Tang Xinluo was clearly in the room, but she never came out to open the door.

Lu Yuchen thought about many kinds of scenarios, but he completely did not expect that he would go in and see a woman wrapped with a blanket, just like a caterpillar.

What was she doing?

Lu Yuchen’s eyebrows raised upward, and he walked toward the bed in big steps.

When he went closer, he found out that the woman under the blankets was actually sleeping very soundly.

The warm light shone down on her petite face, and her entire body was wrapped tightly, leaving only her face that was as big as a palm outside.

Lu Yuchen quietly surveyed the surroundings and saw the black spectacles on the table that would always be by her side.

Below the cupboard, there was intimate clothing that made Lu Yuchen squint.

He bent down to look at Tang Xinluo sleeping soundly and placed his hands beside her.

The woman under the blanket did not even move as she had experienced too many things today. It was also the reason why he made her go and bathe when he returned.

He purely wanted her to come up, shower, and relax herself.

When it was dinner time, there would naturally be someone going to call her down.

Just that, he did not expect the villa helpers to mistake his intentions and bring her to that room, giving her that kind of clothes.

His sharp gaze landed on the woman sleeping soundly, and his gaze moved from her peach eyes to her smiling lips.

He leaned down and could not help but kiss her dewy lips, sucking her sweetness when she was sleeping in a daze.

“Mm, Peter… stop…” Tang Xinluo instinctively wanted to push the man in her dreams away.

However, because she was not wearing any clothes, she purposely wrapped herself tightly before she slept. At this time, she wanted to slap the fellow but was trapped in the blanket and could not use any strength.

When Lu Yuchen heard the woman’s weak voice, there was a spark in his eyes.

“Who is Peter? Your ex?”

Was she awoken by some other man in this way?

“Um, Peter… Peter is…” At this point, Tang Xinluo was waking up slowly. She answered Lu Yuchen’s questions with her words. At the moment—where her eyes opened, she saw a blur yet familiar handsome face.

“You… ah! Why are you here?” She was instantly shocked and wanted to move behind but to no avail.

Of course, she could not move; she was trapped in the blanket. Lu Yuchen was using his wrists to press against the blanket, causing her entire body to lean onto him. Now, Tang Xinluo was just like a silkworm chrysalis; if Lu Yuchen did not move, she could not escape at all.

Today, Tang Xinluo finally understood what ‘spinning a cocoon around oneself’ meant.

“Tell me. Who is Peter?” Lu Yuchen ignored her question and pressed on her tighter.

Both their noses touched slightly, and his handsome features were right in front of her eyes.

Even though she could not see clearly, she could sense the dangerous aura emerging from his body.
